The Internet of Things (IoT), which is building a new world where everything is interconnected and can be remotely operated, is one of the developing technologies. The epoch of machines conquering the universe is just getting warmed up. The next technological innovation is blockchain, which uses a peer-to-peer communication link to preserve general transactional data and information (or blocks) across several repositories (or chains). The terminology "Digital Ledger" alludes to an instance of block storage. Quantum computing is the next quickly developing technology. It incorporates the use of numerous quantum physics aspects, notably superposition and entanglement. Every foundational premise of the computational game is amended by quantum excellence. A new paradigm dubbed Quantum - Chain of Things (QCoT), which is the most potent technology from the sub-emerging technologies is presented when we scrutinize the collaboration of the three powerful advanced. The BC-IOT (Blockchain coupled with IOT leveraging Arduino) and QC-IOT (Quantum computing merged with IOT using IBM Qiskit) subsystems are the cornerstones of QCoT technology. The prevailing breakthroughs in blockchain, quantum computing, and IOT will be addressed in this paper, followed by an exploration of the recommended architectural model for the improved technology.
